Phyllis Webstad, whose moving story of a childhood spent at a Residential School inspired the creation of Orange Shirt Day, will be honoured at Brandon University’s Convocation this week.
A talk by residential school survivor Tony Stevenson will be one of the events recognizing Truth and Reconciliation Week at Brandon University (BU).
Truth and Reconciliation Week at BU takes place from September 26 — 30, 2022, providing a time to reflect on the harm done by Canada’s residential school system.
As the first National Day for Truth and Reconciliation approaches on Thursday, Brandon University (BU) is welcoming all to gather, listen and learn about Indigenous culture and the harmful history of Canada’s residential schools.
Most campus services will be closed on Thursday, but BU encourages everyone to take time for reflection on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and to participate in community events.
